Its a good park. And its fun to walk the stone arch bridge. Its real the University as well so the crowd is young

Great park. I went for a festival. The festival was really great. It was the Black State Fair Festival. My family and I had a great time. It was a safe, fun, and educated experience Ill definitely go again when its back.

I loved it. What a wonderful, diverse park. Spectacular scenery with lots of green space that can accommodate any type of activity for any age - including pets. And the scenery and photo opportunities are spectacular, limited only by the imagination. The weather and mighty Mississippi make for a constantly changing display of the power of the elements and water - its different every time you visit.The park is surrounded by tons of restaunts and other establishments so its just so easy to find relief and refreshment whenever needed. Parking is a bit limited, but with persistence you can always find a place.Bottom line is it is always worth the effort to visit any time of the year. Highly recommended.

We like to come here with our bikes and ride around the stone arch bridge and bike paths and the have dinner on one of the patios. Its an amazing place we have here in Minnesota, great place for date night, take advantage of it.

My friends and I walked the Stone Arch Bridge and some of the trails below. The DNR guide gave us the wrong info to get to the portable toilets. I liked the informational plaques along the way. I also liked the trails being flat and gradual. I read info but had difficulty identifying objects referred to due to the similarity if several of the trusses in the bridges.

Really nice park to go for a walk, play with your kids or just relax. The bridge has a really nice view and great for pictures.

So many fun activities in the summer! Its a great place to hangout and head a bite to eat or a drink with a gorgeous view.

Attend the Black Entrepreneur State Fair! Parking was very scarce but overall the event was ok! Love the location! Lots of photo opportunities!

Nice views of the cityscape, but also the natural beauty along the river. Great area for a walk!!

Beautiful green space in the middle of the city. Very fun to explore and enjoy the views of the Mississippi and the stone arch bridge.

A secret, not so secret wooded trail around the river in DT. Secret to me cause I never knew there was a little nature getaway right there in the middle of DT mpls. Its just a short path to walk around and see a few bridges and dams. Not to mention I got to see some ducks and their babys.

Great park to visit and walk around, awesome scenery!

There are good hammocking trees here and a public place to people watch

The events occurring here are consistently of very high value. Ive watched films on the giant screen set up & have seen incredible talent showing their artistic greatness to eager crowds. Festivals are common during warmer times & good fun is had by all especially on warmer days.

So beautiful from the trees that are changing colors to a beautiful waterfall! Its a good place for families and people who want to walk in nature.

Great place to hold an event in the fall

Wonderful when the weather is good. Lots of fully leafed trees and the river is dramatic as ever

My husband, the civil engineer, never passes a bridge especially a stone arch bridge. You can walk or ride a bike over a bridge and take a ranger guided tour of the old locks.

Brautiful park in downtown and on mississippi banks. Have great view of pillusbury mill and stone arch bridge.

Its a great place to meet people. Its on the Mississippi River at the end of the stone arch bridge. Picnic tables, benches, and a stage.

Good place to get in nature whole also being in the city

My favorite river park in all of Minneapolis love this little spot.

Beautiful place to experience the river in the middle of the city.

Beautiful park and love the old bridge.

Great park to do some sight seeing! Waterfalls, dam, walking bridge. Good for the whole family. Took a few pictures.

Great outdoor area. Not any equipment for kids, but great walking paths.

Great escape from the busy city to the natural.

Gorgeous scenery and relative uncrowded despite its proximity to downtown!

Very cold when I was walking through but it’s a beautiful park. I hear they’re trying to close the pedestrian bridge, very sad news. I hope it doesn’t happen.

The heart of minneapolis! Grungy history and nature

Got to love those Fall colors every single time

Beautiful well maintained park .........just be mindful a lot of dogs

Absolutely enjoyable experience! My step son and I went here when we were in town for a family vacation. The day we went, they had a craft fair going on with music and crafts for all to enjoy for all ages! We loved the walk across the bridge into downtown. Beautiful sights, enjoyed taking pictures and loved the weather that day as well! Sunny and cool! Lots of people walking their dogs, kids roller skating, adults on bikes, people walking, talking and taking pics. They have benches in the park to relax, trash cans to throw away trash, of course! Felt completely safe.

No bluff but still a good park. Trails by the river offer unique mixes of woods/developed sceneries although can be spooky by yourself. You can hear everyone walking around by the road or elsewhere and they have no idea you are just waiting in the woods. I enjoy the cubes area, good for pondering.

Great veiw of the city

Can be sketchy after dark, but is a fun place overall!

Beautiful and picturesque.

Pretty park near the Stone Arch Bridge. Decent amount of street parking & at least one ramp available within walking distance.

Went to the Stone Arch bridge festival. It was great with live music, unique artist, and a great atmosphere.

Very nice! Clean! Beautiful!

The best of downtown Minneapolis.

Nice place for a walk along the river. Benches and open areas to picnic. Live music at dusk in the summer!

One of the hidden gems in MAN! Lived here my whole life and had never heard of this place. Better late then never!

Very nice trails and Interesting Mill ruins to explore.

A hub for community events in a beautiful area. Clean and family-friendly. Near local restaurants and has access to bikes and scooters

One of my favorite places to walk and explore the Minneapolis riverfront! Connects to the Stone Arch Bridge and Nicollet Island for miles of uninterrupted walking. One of my favorite things to do is explore the islands and ruins of over a century of milling accessible by stairs from the end of the park near The Pillsbury A Mill. A great place to get lost and explore without going very far, right in the heart of the city!

Good bit of history, would have liked s place to sit and relax to take in the sights. And some shade!

Beautiful views of Minneapolis from both sides of the river as well as up and down stream from the Stone Arch Bridge. Great place for photos. Nice park area on the north side. Walking distance to everything NE or Washington Ave.

Really cool park. A great place if your a runner or taking a walk for date night.

Nice place to walk

Beutiful place to visit the old architecture and spend nice sunset. Definitely recommend visiting. P.s Street park for exactly an hour to walk across and back with a break to enjoy the views is enough

Beautiful area over looking the Mississippi river and close to dinky town. Historic part of Minneapolis.

A great place for the whole family to visit.

Great for leisurely walks and bike rides

Went to an artists fair. Bustling atmosphere. There were lots of dogs and puppies. Lots of food trucks. Free berries! Saw the Ard Godfrey home. Interesting!

Its a nice green space that frequently hosts events. Its a smaller, historic site with lots of food options and a cinema across the street. Look for the hidden foot trail.

Interesting place, good for walks. Although Im not a big fan of the vandalism.Photo taken from from Stone Arch Bridge

Nice green space in the city right next to the river and stone arch bridge.

Great park

A serene escape from the city, foot traffic, street performers, little oasiss to relax after a long day downtown.

The view from the stone bridge was grate. There are pathes for bikes and walkers. We saw some eagles around the river. This was a nice place for a walk.

Great to walk around and learn some history while enjoying the city.

Love this park. The diversity is welcoming. Hammock friendly. Someone was grilling ️

Great place to see the stone bridge.

Great river spot. It does have a lot of people around the place. That whole area is surrounded by historic buildings and landmarks.

Fun romantic a must see while in the Twin CITIES or just a great chance to see the Mississippi River

Best place to see artistic garden, nice walking area, public rest rooms available, sitting benches, nice view of Minneapolis downtown etc.

Very neat park 8n the cities...love the long walking bridge over the river!!

I love it down here.

If you are looking for a state park with the best beach then this is the one. Beautiful park

Nice family friendly place for walk, bike, scooter.

Yo, its a gem

Just need an off leash puppy area and it would be great

Awesome...family friendly, good music, wonderful movies. The city does a great job of managing the events and are very friendly and knowledgeable. Get there early to avoid the long walk...parking is limited next to the park.

Movie in the park nights in the summer are priceless

Its always nice here, its our neighborhood so theres always lots of active people doing their thing. Nice family oriented as well.

Great place

It was a nice park I loved it really love it every time I go there

Fun place to rc crawl at.

Not the most kid friendly park outside of finding parking it’s a good choice lovely views perfect for photographers

Cool place. Saw the Stone arc bridge art festival. Three stages, beer garden, carnival food, tons of expensive art in stalls. The Little trails by the river were very nice. I liked it.

Beautiful walk over the river much nicer then taking the bus.

I love going here every year. Lots of walking but lots to see too. Lots of shade and a waterfall you can go under. Great place for swimming too.

Awesome fantastic.

Weekly concerts in the summer, a few picnic tables. Best feature is proximity to the Stone Arch bridge

Dontcha just love the beautiful views! Oh you betcha!

Nice park, Stone Arch bridge. Paths to the river. Live music in the summers. Many 5ks start or end here. Stone Arch bridge festival on fathers day weekend is popular. Fireworks for the 4th and aquatennial are right nearby. Main St is historic and the section of 6th Ave SE reminds us why we dont make streets like that anymore. Parking meters are very strictly enforced, Stone Arch apartment lot can be an expensive tow so dont park there!

Beautiful chill park next to Stone Arch bridge and bike trails

Great place to walk around and have the water noise over shadow the city noise especially at night.

Cant beat the view; romantic and perfect for nearly every occasion.

Maybe its just my bad luck, but it always seems like there are waaaay more mosquitos and gnats here than just about any other park in the Twin Cities.

Wonder wall place to watch fireworks on the 4th of July

Nice area to relax and enjoy nature, while reflecting on life.

Loved it! Great scenery and history.

Absolutely breathtaking nature in the middle of the city.

This is where I got engaged I love it

Red White and Boom! Best seats in the house.

M y family love the trails until my son got poison ivy

4th July fir works

Beautiful park with awesome views.
